Same issue (different game) as the following. No way to get a backslash (\) in DOSBox running on an new HP with Vista. Anyone figured this one out yet? [I hate Vista!]

No "\" capable, therefore can't mount anything

I just got an old game that i love 2 play called "full throttle" only it wont work with windows vista for some reason. So i downloaded DOSBOX and it looked like i wuz well on my way to playing but i couldnt change the drive to my cd drive because i couldnt type ":" or "\" for some reason....if anyone has any knoledge that will help me it would be much appreciated...thank you

I get the same thing, I cannot use the \ key, how can I fix this?

==================================================================

Possible Solution.....

===================================

The code above if entered into Dosbox.conf, when you open Dosbox, it will mount, load, and go to this folder, displaying the files with-in.

Now just create batch files with the commands normally used to load doxbox games, place them in the gamelist folder (C:/gamelist)

OpenGL Non Bilinear (Filtering)

output = surface | overlay | opengl | openglnb | ddraw
What to use for output.
Default is surface.
(since 0.??)

Your search - openglnb site:wikipedia.org - did not match any documents.

Don't blame on Wikipedia. They talk about bilinear filtering. Blame on...

May Help

My keyboard (Microsoft) has a key "Ç". To see ":" I type shift + Ç. If it seems ok, try shift + another key for "\". I hope it helps you. Dixon - Brazil - Bahia.

I need a help too: I'm trying to run the game Blackthorne. I mount c:\DOSGames and all is ok, but when I try to run the .exe file, nothing happen and the commands crashes. A friend told me that this game needs EMS memory and is necessary to add a line to config sys file, like that: himem.sys:device=c\DOS\EMM386.exe RAM. I don't know if it is right or no. If true, how can I edit the config.sys file, or what to do to run this game? Thank you.

May have messed up Keymapper

Ctrl-F1 no longer brings up Keymapper. I was trying to get the "\" and perhaps I messed up. How can I get keymapper back? (Am using Windows 7 and somehow in my efforts to get a c:\\ I succeeded one time and brought up Q&A, which is the old DOS program I want to work. So there must be a way .. Thanks.

You can try running DOSBOX with the command line -startmapper (it will look like dosbox -startmapper)
